Lot47 - Loubès Bernac - Moulin De Brisseaux

Moulin de Brisseaux is a lovingly restored 200-year-old converted windmill, which sits in a gorgeous, rural location at the edge of a vineyard in the Lot et Garonne countryside. It has a view of Chateau Theobon. Original features have been retained with a mix of modern convenience to create a romantic, cosy haven with plenty of home comforts. The mill is set in a cul-de-sac or impasse, a 5-minute walk from the small village of Loubes-Bernac. Here you will find a shop, for your essentials, like morning croissants. There is a locally renowned restaurant and a post office. Within half an hours drive there are several large supermarkets on the outskirts of the nearby towns. Within the same drive there are also an abundance of places to visit including Bergerac, famous for Cyrano de Bergerac, Duras and Monbazillac. The popular bastide town of Eymet is another place to visit. In July and August they host colourful evening markets and have some lovely restaurants. Château des Vigiers, a fantastic 27 hole golf course, is also close by. A bit further away you’ll find Saint Emilion surrounded by vineyards and winehouses. There are opportunities to sample the wines and explore the catacombs beneath the village. It is the perfect base for exploring all that the area has to offer or of course relaxing during your honeymoon! The accommodation in detail The windmill is set over three floors. Inside the thick, stone walls have been left exposed, adding to the character of the building. You enter on the ground floor into the well-equipped, fitted, kitchen. Here you’ll find a dining table, electric cooker, fridge-freezer, washing machine, microwave and kettle. On the ground floor, under the stairs, there is also a small shower room with a toilet. On the first floor is the double bedroom with a king-sized bed, washbasin, hairdryer and mirror. Under the stairs there is a wardrobe/storage area with hangers, rails and shelves for your clothes. On the second floor the lounge is furnished with a settee, two comfortable armchairs, a coffee table, and chest of drawers. The fabulous view from here takes in the vineyard, the village church steeple and even the local Chateau Theobon and beyond. Perfect to sit and admire with a glass of wine! There is a TV with Netflix only, no terrestrial or satellite channels available, and a DVD player with a selection of DVDs for you to enjoy. There are books and games available for your entertainment too. Each floor has a wall mounted electric heater making the windmill suitable for letting all year round. The natural stone of the windmill ensures the building is kept cool in summer and warm in winter. The windows and doors are also fitted with shutters. There are ceiling fans in the bedroom and living rooms to help keep you cool in summer and fly screens on the main windows if you prefer to open the windows to get a cool breeze. Outside The windmill is set within a private garden with lovely views on three sides and some large trees to provide shade when it gets too hot. There is a double hammock for relaxing, a pergola with a seated area and a fully equipped BBQ. There is a table and chairs for alfresco dining too. The garden is designed to allow you to take shade in the mid-day sun, if you need to, and to enjoy the beautiful evening sunsets with a glass of wine or two!
